It doesn’t matter what sport, the issue is there. There will always be gender comparison. This video shows some of the NBA and WNBA players doing the same moves. The video is not about gender. It is just about pure skills and skills only. Just the pure beauty of a great basketball move.

Will our 2010 Ultimate Athlete be a woman?
